"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo
It's that time of year when I ask, hat in hand, for some help. Things at my school are dire. For example, since 2009, our enrollment has declined by 30%, while our staff has declined by 52% (and that's with keeping some 12% of teachers by writing a crazy grant for something else). So we have no money and I'm Donors Choosing it.
Each year, Sonic runs a Limeades for Learning Program. People can vote each day for the next 30 days. Each week, Sonic will fund the projects with the highest votes. Please help me by voting. My current project is for Doubt which I am totally stoked to teach and my project in the wings is for Lauren Hillenbrand's book Unbroken.
You can vote each day (and via many email addresses) at [link] Please to help and thanks!

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
Ethan's book is available for pre-order! Go buy it!
(About the price, this publisher mainly sells to libraries and academic institutions, so it's priced like a textbook. Hopefully they'll be able to put out a more public-friendly paperback or e-book release in the future!!)

My sister has taken a turn for the worse. Prayers or vibes or good thoughts if you have them would be welcome. This may just be a reaction to the chemo, but we'll know more later.
